Spruce Run Recreation Area offers a boat launch ramp and car-top launch area for accessing the 1,290-acre reservoir, with seasonal boat rentals (10 hp motor limit) and dry storage available year-round.

The facility includes modern restrooms with showers, a sanitary dump station, and 67 campsites (April-October), making it suitable for both day-use paddlers and overnight camping trips.

Multiple picnic areas and fishing access points are distributed along the 15-mile shoreline, though swimming is currently prohibited due to harmful algal blooms.
